Effect estimate of genetically elevated morning plasma cortisol on risk of CHD. The forest plot shows odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for CHD per standard deviation increase in morning plasma cortisol. The overall genetic effect was estimated using random-effects meta-analysis of Wald ratio estimates. The genetic effect was estimated using data from the meta-analysis of 34,541 CHD cases and 261,984 controls from UK Biobank and 88,192 cases and 162,544 controls from CARDIoGRAMplusC4D (29).
